Engine choices to mod a 73T coupe

Just purchased a 73 roller, accident free, no rust with brand new paint and sc flares. Need advice for powertrain (engine, intake and tranny)

Looking to build a "gruppe R" theme vehicle. Goal is amazing throttle response with solid low end torque and perhaps the ability to keep up with modern exotics in straight line.

First choice

Stock 2.4 mod to 2.7 specs with mfi. (don't expect super speed but at least it'll look stock)

Second Choice

Stock 3.2, 3.4 or 3.6 off a carrera, 964 or 993

Third choice

Built 3.0sc motor with webers

Not long ago, we installed a strong-running 964 3.6 into a beautiful Rose Red '73 T that looks totally stock, but runs VERY hard.

We updated the 915 transmission with an SC one and LSD, added two front oil coolers in the fenderwells, installed 930 brakes inside some 911R-spec 7x15 Fuchs, and upgraded the suspension as needed.

Its really a neat car and a total "Q-ship",.....
